The blue of the sky and the blue of the sea are there in unison, the boats tied to the shore, the rows of aesthetic coconut trees and the gentle touch of the gentle wind in the rhythm of the waves is a small attempt to describe the beauty of St. Martin's Coral Island Jellyfish in clear waters, assorted marine fish, turtles, corals have turned St. Martin and the surrounding area into a living school of mystery. It is the only coral island in Bangladesh. St. Martin is a small island in the sea chest, 120 km from the district town of Cox's Bazar. Just water and water all around. Area 16 square kilometers. It takes two to two and a half hours to go from Teknaf to the trawler by launch or ship. Its population is about six and a half thousand. Coconut, onion, pepper, tomato and rice are the main agricultural products of the island. Almost all the inhabitants are fishing.
